The purpose of this presentation would be to provide a rational and fact-based review of security on our southern border from a public safety and public policy standpoint. The presentation will include photos of the actual border and examples of human and drug trafficking. This should be both educational and informative for those sheriffs who have not visited the border. There will be ample time for Q&A.

Seminar – The Belmar Bomber
8:00am - 9:00am
The Belmar Bomber is a case study assembled to debrief a standoff with a barricaded bombing subject in Cleveland Heights Ohio, on January 25th, 2018. Shortly after being informed of his upcoming eviction, Szilard Takacs, a troubled ex-chemical engineer, gathered bomb making supplies, and barricaded himself inside his home. After doing so, he contacted the Cleveland Heights Police Department, daring officers to respond to the residence, where he would proceed to “fight them to the death to protect his home.” While inside, the subject worked diligently to assemble the bomb for detonation in the highly populated Cleveland Heights Coventry Village Neighborhood. In his manifest, the subject taunted EDGE SWAT Operators to enter the residence, where they would meet their demise.
The PowerPoint presentation contains hundreds of slides, including excerpts of the subjects original threat(s) to Law Enforcement, photos of the device he assembled, and a videos extracted from Body Camera. It offers tremendous insight into the Standoff, and allows those in attendance to dissect the incident as it unfolds. The Belmar Bomber Case Study reveals the numerous challenges faced by EDGE Negotiators, uniformed police officers, and first responders, from over 12 separate Cleveland area agencies.
